This one-time class offers a chance for students to learn about animal adaptations while sculpting or drawing a skull of their own, combining art and science! Excellent for children interested in zoology or veterinary science.

Class experience

Students will understand the major differences between eye placement in the skull of a predator and prey, as well as the differences in the teeth of a carnivore and herbivore. Students who already have a basic understanding will benefit from learning more advanced concepts such as parts of the skull and animal adaptations. 
My teaching experience in the life sciences includes ecology, and biology. Before I became a teacher I worked with wildlife, in a microbiology lab, and also in animal welfare. I have always been called to work with children and have volunteered at girl scout camps, zoo camps and children's hospitals. As a teacher on Outschool I am committed to bringing visual and tangible content to the classroom. I believe teaching is more than just a lecture. My students learn best by seeing examples of concepts, and by breaking new content down into manageable pieces. I am always available for questions and support!
Students can use common household ingredients to make their own air dry clay before class (many great recipes online) or they can use any modeling clay, playdough, etc. of their choosing! Some students may prefer to paint or draw and they’ll have fun learning too!
Real animal skulls are used to demonstrate concepts.
